CARLOAD OF BILLY GOATS
Here's n (iimil One on n I'orter Who
Works for the Ciidnliy Click
ing ( nm inn .
A good story Is told In which the colored
porter, M. F. Singleton, nt tho nlllces o'
tho Cudahy Tucking company at South
Omaha Is tho central figure. It seems
Singleton Is possessed of tho modest nm
liltlon to become tho owner of a blllygoat.
lie has expressed his dctdro time and again
for 11 whlto blllygoat to every man In the
department from H. A. Cudahy down to the
olllco boy,
And his troubles all grew out of his dc
tdro to possess this llttlo aromatic animal.
Tho 1o)h concluded they would put up a
Job on li I in, which they did and sprung It
yihferday morning nt 8:30 with Frank Ken
nedy, .ns tho chief plotter. Singleton was
c.illtfd to tho 'phono and thero Informed
that a carload of blllygoats lay on tho track
tor him and naked for Instructions ns to
disposition. Tho porter was so paralyzed
with astonishment that for a while he could
make, no audible replly. Finally ho managed
to nay:
"What you talkln' 'ttout. I don't want no
rorloail o' blllygoats. I wanted Jos' n little
whlto blllygoal."
Ho was Informed, nnwover, that thero
ftas a carload for him, containing seventy-
flve gnats, billies and nannies, that thu cost
of tho goats was $385, tho freight $7." and
that It wns costing him monnv every minute
they wero detained on the track.
"What disposition Is to bo made of them?"
canio tho stern demand.
Tho Janitor was overcome with the situa
tion. Then ho was handed a bill for tho
goats by 0110 of tho clerks, who told him
he hail better rent an enclosure In the ynrds
snd keep them there temporarily.
Hut Singleton Insisted that he didn't want
Iho goats nnd was ge.ttlng fairly distracted.
Mr. Cudahy suggested. In response to liM
Inquiries, that perhaps he had better send
tho car buck, and the return freight could
ho charged up to him as well as the send
ing freight and he. could pay It out of hU
MigeR from week to week.
Tho Janitor was Btruck dumb by this
Imposition and could only reply thu: "ho
didn't want no carload of goats ' Then a
message came from the yards that the
seats wero suffering for food ami needed

Next some of the boys offered to buy a
blllygcat. Singleton was delighted at this
proposition and 11111 to se light. With
a bright '.den he made a canvas of the
building and sold all of his goatn nt a price
nunicient to pay damage and net him a
good round profit. He hurried out to find
hit consignment, but was Informed that
the ear was blocking up tho tracks and
had been movetl to another part of the
yards. He ("pent the entire day traveling

was told by a neighbor that Chancy, his chil
dren and a negro cook had moved during th

Is unknown. The man from whom ho rented
tho house, who lives next door, says he has
seen some "queer goings-on" In the Chancy
family.
"Tho doctor lived with them," he said,
"and tho doctor was thoro a good deal tnoro
than Chancy wns. Until recently I didn't
know which man wns tho husband In the

INDIANAPOLIS, lud.. March S.-TI10'
News this afternoon says, 'it is stated by
Intimate friends of General Harrison that he
Is chagrined that his name should bo so
freely used In the newspapers of the country
In connection with public questions now
under consideration.
Kfforts to make It appear that he is
planning to step forward ns an nntl-admln-istratlon
lender, with the hope that ho may
be called on to beromo n candidate for presi
dent, Is, It Is said, especially distasteful
to him. Ills friends Bay that he has not
tho slightest dcslro to re-fnter politics, and
that all references to his political aspira
tions aro gratuitous.
It Is noted by tho associates of the former
president that, with a single exception, he
has refrained from expressing himself on
public questions over since.' ho retired from
the presidency. Tho exception wns his state
ment In tho News Inst Saturday that he
did not Indorse the Porto Hlcan tariff bill.
That expression, his friends say, would not
have been made were It not for tho fact
that he had expressed lUmsclf privately In
such a way as to permit tho public lo get a
partial Impression of his attitude.
A gentleman who in near the former presi
dent used this statement today:
"You may say that If General Harrison
had any thought of re-entering politics
which he has not he would not make his
reappearance by criticising the administra
tion." The fact Is, this gentleman said, that Gen
eral Harrison's mind has not changed since
he retired from the presidency. Ho said at
that time that ho had permanently retired
from politics, and It Is stated that he has
had no desire to reappear before the public
ns an aspirant for re-election to tho presi
dency. POLICE GUARD LABORERS
